Ok that didn't get any better....

Received: from lists.ausnog.net (unknown [IPv6:::1])

I'm thinking I should just start a Whirlpool thread on this one rather 
than clutter up the list with individual operational list issues like this.

Clearly this is going to take more effort than just changing the config.
